Abstract: A method for producing a resistive memory cell from a stack of layers having a metal-oxide layer interleaved between first and second electrodes includes forming, within one from among the first and second electrodes, an interlayer material-based electrode interlayer having a selectivity to etching greater than or equal to 2:1 relative to materials of the electrodes. During an etching of the stack, overetching is performed configured to laterally consume, in a horizontal direction, the interlayer material such that the electrode interlayer has a lateral recess greater than or equal to 10 nm.

Abstract: An OxRAM oxide based resistive random access memory cell includes a first electrode; a layer M1Oss of a sub-stoichiometric oxide of a first metal; a layer M2N of a nitride of a second metal M2; a layer M3M4O of a ternary alloy of a third metal M3, a fourth metal M4 and oxygen O, or M3M4NO of a quaternary alloy of the third metal M3, the fourth metal M4, nitrogen N and oxygen O and a second electrode. The standard free enthalpy of formation of the ternary alloy M3M4O, noted ?Gf,T0 (M3M4O), or of the quaternary alloy M3M4NO, noted ?Gf,T0 (M3M4NO), is strictly less than the standard free enthalpy of formation of the sub-stoichiometric oxide M1Oss of the first metal M1, noted ?Gf,T0 (M1Oss), itself less than or equal to the standard free enthalpy of formation of any ternary oxynitride M2NO of the second metal M2, noted ?Gf,T0 (M2NO): ?Gf,T0(M3M4O)<?Gf,T0(M1Oss)??Gf,T0(M2NO) or ?Gf,T0(M3M4NO)<?Gf,T0(M1Oss)??Gf,T0(M2NO).

Abstract: A resistive non-volatile memory cell including a Metal-Insulation-Metal stack including two electrodes and a multilayer of insulation, placed between the two electrodes, including a thin layer of oxide allowing for a resistive transition and an oxygen vacancy reservoir layer is provided. The stack includes from bottom to top: the bottom electrode including a metal layer, the insulation including a layer of stoichiometric metal oxide and a layer of substoichiometric metal oxide forming the oxygen vacancy reservoir layer, and the top electrode including a layer of metal oxide and a metal layer, such that the oxygen vacancy reservoir layer is inserted between two metal oxide stoichiometric layers.

Abstract: An insulating support (20) for insulating an electrical conductor contained in aligned casing portions (34, 35), is held in a housing (39) defined by the flanges (36, 37) for joining the casing portions (34, 35) together, the flanges presenting contact faces (38) around the periphery (24) of the support (20). A single sealing gasket (41) is sufficient to prevent the atmosphere in the casing leaking to the outside, and that simplifies assembly of the electrical equipment, while at the same time protecting the support (20) from the outside. For application to medium- and high-voltage electrical equipment.

Abstract: The bend of the invention makes it possible to provide a great number of different direction changes in the configuration of gas-insulated high-voltage lines. The bend mainly uses an angled ferrule (11). associated with two angular rings (12), placed between the angled ferrule (11) and a straight section (13) of the line, each angular ring (12) forming a change of direction defined by a determined angular offset angle (?) between said two joining surfaces. Thus, the use of an angled ferrule (11), in combination with one or two angular rings (12) makes it possible to obtain the four angular offsets of 70°, 80°, 100°, 110°. These same angular rings (12), used with an angled ferrule having an angle of 140° makes it possible to obtain the angles of 120°, 130°, 150°, and 160°. Use for constructing gas-insulated high-voltage lines.
